Terra2 is Back at Double Helix

by

Announcing new glass by Double Helix is always exciting but t announce the reappearance of Terra2 is even more exciting. I have to say that I never got a chance to play with Terra2. It was gone by the time I got seriously hooked on Double Helix glass but the beads I’ve seen made with it are to die for.

The colors that come out of it are magical. It’s like Raku or Chalcedony but more. I hope I can get some in Las Vegas at Glass Craft and Bead Expo, whenre I’ll be selling beads next week. But if no one has it I’ll be ordering at least a pound. Super good bead making times ahead that’s for sure! Also check out their new murrini slices for sale. They look like some fun to play with too.
